one quick question though, does raw chicken smell worse than the other meats? i buy pre-made raw for my dogs, but it seems like the chicken smells kind of bad usually, while the other meats don't smell as bad, is the chicken bad? or does raw chicken just smell worse than other raw meats?
i am hesitant to make my own raw, because i am scared that maybe it's not as safe as pre-made raw, because with the raw meats they sell at supermarkets for human consumption; they don't expect anyone to eat it raw, so i am afraid that it might not be very safe to feed it directly to my dogs without cooking first. any thoughts on that?
thanks! |
Sorry it's been so long since I've been on YT!
Raw meat is raw meat so it will obviously have a smell. It doesn't typically bother me but if the smell of chicken is too much to handle you could definitely use other meats. I don't really know how to help you there...
As far as safety -- you have to go with what you feel is safest. I personally trust the raw food I buy at the grocery store much more than pre-made raw, simply because I don't trust any commercial pet food completely. That doesn't mean I won't feed it, however.
